evil summit time saver
At the beginning of Evil Summit, you usually have to go up to the left sniper tower and activate the switch with your Q Remote. You then go back down the sniper tower and unlock the hatch with your Q Remote. You then enter a little hallway with one guard. At the end of the hallway is a checkpoint, where you'll enter the next area of the level.
Well, there's a way to bypass activating the switch on top of the sniper tower. When the level starts, start to go the sniper towers. When you reach the hatch that's stilled locked, look off the edges. You'll see a thin slanted platform on each side. You can walk on these platforms, but you have to be careful to not slip off to your death.
When your on the thin platform, look towards the hallway that you usually enter after unlocking the hatch. The only thing between you and the hallway is a window. Just shoot it out and jump.
It's hard to pull off, but if you do, you can save over 30 seconds. It's at the very beginning of the run, so if you mess it up, just keep trying!
